Was just thinking of my dream Evil party, (because i've been SO GOOD all game!) and I remembered my fave fighter character class...the Avenger, Mr Evil himself. Ah....if i bring in my oh-so-cool Chaotic Evil Necromancer (Angelus from BG1, and add on a slick mover like an Avenger, my party would start to rock!!! Ah, Evil never was so sweet..........

I know this is Off topic, but just to detail my Evil party, has anyone seen the Buffy episode where she kills Dracula!!!?? I thought he was so cool that when Buffy staked him i yelped out "No!" !!!!!!!! (involunatrily)...thats modern marketing for you...positioning Dracs as anti-hero...the Buffster showed No Mercy though. It would be cool to have a monster player, so that if you got infected with the vampire virus, you could go on for a while/fight it/etc. hard with the sun factor though. Same idea more usable with were-wolves. has this happened in any of the D&D games? I haven't finished BG1, but I knew the expansion pack had a werewolf island or something-I thought it was pretty likely you could get bitten/changed there. But I never got that far. (study!) Actually in all logic if a vampire killed you in Bg2, shouldn't your player then get up (ie like animate dead) as a vampire? just (evil) thoughts

Have you seen the movie BLADE? very similar concept.

Blade-absolutely WICKED film! The first time I saw it was incredibly cool-totally awesome peformance from Wesley Snipes as Blade-there was a cool Hero!! I also like what they do on "Buffy" & "Angel"-I was a mass Buffy fan from day one, but became totally 'Angelised' last season-new season just kicked off here in Sydney-both total cool so far. Angel rocks! We've only had one show of each so far. but if the new Buffy was anything to go by, (the Drac episode) I'd say we are looking at another class season. Gotta love the Buffster.
